Portlanders! Start saving your book buying dollars for the May 4-May 5 Rose City Used Book Fair. A number of local dealers will have booths and will be selling books that range from bargain volumes to rare and collectible volumes. Wrigley-Cross, which I thought was entirely virtual, but actually has a Troutdale storefront, will be there, as will Murder By the Book and others. There will be seminars for more serious collectors, but they are calling it an "unpretentious" book fair, so browsers and low spenders are welcome as well. Entry is $2 or $1 with food donation.
